though one can think of comparing hash values of it or such). > But - and this is why I ask - I don't see it forbidden in the spec.
It's not that it is forbidden, just not allowed. The spec defines comparisons for * string * boolean * datetime * entity_bean * arithmetic (number) and defines which classes map to each type. It does not define any operations for 'all the other Serializable classes' even though they can be persisted. The implementation of unspecified features is down to the vendor, JBoss does not allow this in EJB-QL, but does allow it to be defined in JBoss-QL.
